The CNT-II was a single-engine biplane flying boat built by the Italian shipyard Cantiere Navale Triestino (CNT) in 1924.

Design and development

It was built to participate in the 1925 edition of the Schneider Cup. The CNT-II was powered by a pusher 465 hp (347 kW) V12 motor engine. Both aircraft sank during the flotation trials. Although recovered and sent for repairs, the project was abandoned.[1]
